Subete ga F ni Naru was recommended to me by a friend. There were a lot of good things being said about this anime so I decided to watch it. The first episode wasn't anything special and it didn't really introduce the audience to the story. However, I don't judge an anime by its first episodes so I went along with it. Honestly, I didn't understand what people found so exciting about the first episode, I can only guess it was when Seikawa asked Nishinosono 'What are the 3 big questions of life' to which she replied 'Who am I? Why am I here? And where will I go?' Now, if you like anime with big psychological plots and questions, this might be the perfect anime for you.
The story was different and for the most part kept you interested and involved although there were times where it felt like the story stopped in order for the characters to talk about the deepest of the deepest of stuff. Again, if you like deep and emotional(less) dialogues in anime, this will be perfect for you. As for the pace, the story does start slow and like it doesn't have much to offer but after about 3 or 4 episodes, it does start to get interesting.
The art was dull and gloomy although this does add to the mystery and the eerie feel in the anime. It wasn't anything special so if you decide to watch Subete ga F ni Naru don't expect amazing art. Good News though! If you like funky openings with pretty colours and awesome music then you're going to like the one for Subete ga F ni Naru. It's one of the things that I enjoyed about the anime although when I first watched it I thought the anime was going to be about something completely different.
There's not much to say about the sound. The music used for the opening and the ending was catchy and I have it in my playlist but there wasn't much sound or sound effects, not that I noticed anyway so if there was some music during the scenes, the producers didn't do a very good job at making me realise it therefore making it impossible to appreciate the beauty of music.
The characters were interesting, I don't think there was one character in the anime that I didn't like. Each character looked different and I probably won't be seeing any other anime characters that look similar to the ones in Subete ga F ni Naru. This is another thing that I enjoyed about he anime, the individualistic characters and their simple yet unique design. Their personalities were also all so distinct and contrasting and not one character had the same personality as the other.
Overall, the anime was pretty decent and quite enjoyable although it does start of slow and ordinary but does pick up the pace and keeps the audience wanting more. I wouldn't consider this anime to be a high priority to watch but it definitely deserves to be given a chance, this might one day become a classic.
